Runs fine here on Win7, 4gb ram, dualcore 2,5GHz, Geforce 525M laptop.Pretty cool Had a bunch of scares while playing

A few things, though. With the few bullets I have in a magazine, I get pretty upset every time a shot goes straight through a ghost without damaging it. It seems I have to shoot a bit to the left of them to hit them, but then when I try to compensate for that, it changes when I move around. Almost like it depends on which angle (map-wise) I'm shooting at them. Perhaps the hitboxes are a bit displaced?

There are so many ghosts, that I never have time to open the chest and get the goodies. Probably because it takes a full mag to kill each of them, with the concern listed above, and me being a bit tired

Also, they can kill you in less than a second. While this does add to the feeling of being in a horrible peril, I think you could lower it a bit. Especially since it seems that if 2 ghosts are within damage-range at the same time, they both count (as they should!), and with 30 ghosts chasing you...well, you get the picture.

The .bat file is temporary, right? Cause for deployment, it's not very "slick".

If you can fix these things, you have potential for a fun little game here. Please do post a new version, cuz I'd love to play it

Wow, thanks for the amazing feedback!! I'm glad you enjoyed it, and I will most definitely be taking your feedback on board.I already knew about the bullet bug, and I will fix it promptly! Also, the .bat file is just there in case the .jar doesn't work.

Finally once the graphics have been updated, there will be more than just a bunch of scares! Mwahahaha!

Anyways, thank you so much for playing, and keep an eye out for GhostForest (temporary name) Beta

You're welcome Good, good, good. I think the ghosts are horrifying as they are, but lets see what you can dish up

How? Don't you reuse textures? Or do you load a new texture for each ghost or something? You should make sure all textures are only loaded into ram once, and that only that one instance of it it used by each object using that texture.I really don't see how anything but images could produce that much of a load on ram

I couldn't do anything except shoot a few bullets, then run out of ammo... and die!

R reloads your weapon.

Cool that you found a workaround for the memory problem. OP, you shouldn't assign extra heap, unless you're absolutely sure you need it. It usually just covers up memory leaks for some time. It'll still crash eventually

I think you should update the .bat file with what teletubo did (it worked for me too), unless you've already done it.I do get the same error as Mads, however(with the sound).Anyways, the actual game review:Pretty nice, kinda like slender with the flashlight and woods, except slender is pure 3d You should probably add more enemy types, and a more obvious signal that you are reloading.

He won't need the batch-file anymore, since he fixed his memory problem.What kind of soundcard do you guys with the error have? My laptop has an onboard Conexant SmartAudio HD and it works fine. I can try it with my Waveterminal when I get home tomorrow.

I do agree with the reload-thing. I never know how much ammo I have, or when I've actually reloaded. I spend most of my time running scared, keeping tabs on the ghosts ^^

Works fine on my computer. The graphics and the sounds are really coherent. The gameplay is pretty fun.I only think that the GUI could be improved. You put everything in only one corner, so when I focus on the action, I don't clearly see how many ammo I have left for instance.Great little game for the moment !
